WEST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - A week after charges were announced against two luxury real estate brokers and their brother, a fourth person connected to an alleged decades-long sex trafficking case, running from New York City to Miami is set to surrender Wednesday, police say.
Ohad Fisherman, a real estate broker, is now facing sexual assault charges related to a 2016 New Year’s Eve incident involving Oren and Alon Alexander.
According to court documents, Fisherman held down the victim while the brothers took turns sexually assaulting her.
The Alexander twins appeared in state court Friday in Miami where they were granted bail, only for them to be eventually turned over to the feds.
They’re also charged in a parallel federal case, alleging decades-long sex trafficking case spanning from New York City to Miami.
Their older brother, Tal Alexander, was charged only in that federal case and was denied bail on Friday.
A federal judge called Tal a flight risk, saying he could intimidate witnesses or flee the country to Israel.
The judge’s ruling means it’s likely Oren and Alon Alexander wouldn’t be able to get out jail, either, before their trial.
“One risk of flight and two, danger to the community. And I did not think the government met that burden at all. Obviously, the judge thought differently, so here we are,” said an attorney.
The brothers are accused of drugging and raping dozens of women over the course of years. Oren Alexander is facing three separate state charges, while Alon Alexander is facing only one state charge.
One of the alleged victims spoke with 7News exclusively, but asked to remain anonymous, as she recounted a 2013 date with Oren that she said turned into a nightmare.
“He threw himself at me, he started being very rough,” said the woman. “First I was in shock, and then I was in fighting mode, and I couldn’t get him off of me. I was trying to get him off of me, yelling, but he didn’t listen, and the attack went on.”
Then, she said she was raped.
More than a decade later, Oren went before a judge for his alleged crimes.
And so now, she’s waiting for justice.
“I was relieved that finally something maybe something will happen. That they will pay for what they’ve done,” she said.
During a federal hearing for Tal Alexander, the persecutors said that a wave of new victims had come forward since the brothers’ arrest.
As for Fisherman, he’s said to be to arriving in the country Tuesday from celebrating his honeymoon in Japan. He will turn himself in Wednesday and will be arraigned before a judge at 9:00 a.m.
